Why The Winds Didn't Come Back To Find Their Sister For Season 4

Seeking Sister Wife stars the beloved Winder family, and those who followed the show were shocked when the famous family didn't return for season 4.

Viewers of Seeking Sister Wife learned that the Winds won't be appearing again in Season 4 of the TLC series after showing up in Seasons 2 and 3, and now it's time to share new facts about the family. The Winds (Kolton, Tammy, and Sophie Winds) have one of the most authentic plural marriages on the show, representing polygamy in the best possible way. Unlike some co-stars, including Snowden and Merrifield, Wenders looked healthy and down to earth. Winders have yet to return to the hit series.

The Winders was introduced in Seeking Sister Wife Season 2, as Colton and his first wife Tammy welcomed a new sister wife, Sophie, into their family. What sets the Winders apart from most of the couples on the show is that they both grew up in multiple marriages. So Seeking Sister Wife's Colton Winder and his spouse seem to have a better understanding of how to make a relationship of more than two people work. While their marriage isn't perfect, Tammy and Sophie seem to have made strides over their "sister" counterparts in terms of the way they handle their expanding family.

The Winder Family From Seeking Sister Wife Was Growing

by When the time came for Seeking Sister Wife season 3, Sophie was pregnant and the Winders began courting a new potential sister-wife, Kimberley Greene. Still, the new woman was destined not to join the family. Unfortunately, the chemistry between Kimberly and Colton wasn't there, and their courtship would end shortly after her visit. It was during this season that the Wynds' screen time on the show began to dwindle. When the team announced the end of their tenure ahead of the season 3 finale, rumors swirled about Wenders leaving the show. However, Colton quickly denied these rumors.

Seeking Sister Wife's Winder Family Moved On With Gratitude

However, shortly after confirming that their family was not leaving the show, the Winder family shared a statement on their Winder Family Instagram announcing that they would not be participating in the upcoming season 4 of Seeking Sister Wife. "As some of you have already seen, we will not be returning for Season 4 of 'The Wife Seeker,'" the family wrote in a message. "It made sense to us why we weren't picked because we've seen the show take a different path." Seeking Sister Wife's producers no longer seem to see Winders' laid-back polygamous lifestyle as A sort of Great for the show, opting to bring in a more controversial cast.

Although they left Seeking Sister Wife behind, the Winder family appears to be thriving. The Winder Family's Instagram account is still frequently updated, and Tami and Sophie chronicle their experiences on their podcast, "The Winder Wives." Recently, Tami and Sophie shared their journey with IVF, opening up to fans about their struggles to conceive despite infertility. Not long ago, the family reported that Sophie and Tammy were both pregnant, but not long after, it was reported that Sophie had a miscarriage. The family continues to be very open with fans about their life together.
